Villain Young Master Doesn't Want to Fall in Love with the Cute Domineering Female Lead Chapter 3

Wu Liang dragged his somewhat heavy legs out of the elevator. It seemed he had underestimated the Wu Family's power.

He hadn't experienced this feeling of having the world in his hands while playing games, but Wu Liang was now truly witnessing it.

Money truly allowed one to do whatever they pleased.

"To avoid being recognized by the bodyguards, I should disguise myself..."

Wu Liang looked at the black-clothed bodyguards milling about in the lobby and felt a terrible headache coming on.

How could he, a dignified Young Master of the Wu Family, have to act like a thief when facing his own bodyguards?

..

After searching for a good portion of the day, Wu Liang finally found a KFC paper bag and put it over his head, successfully evading the bodyguards at the entrance.

There was a bench under a lamppost in the courtyard. Seeing that no one was around, Wu Liang walked over, intending to rest for a moment.

The evening breeze carried a hint of chill, making Wu Liang, who was only wearing a hospital gown, feel a bit cold.

"I'm really unlucky. Even if I came here, I only have one year left."

Wu Liang sighed heavily.

He only had one year left here. To survive, he had to make a change.

Starting tomorrow, a different new life awaited him.

"Forget it... I should go back..."

Wu Liang touched the KFC paper bag on his head.

He had forgotten to mention earlier, but everyone should definitely not follow his example.

The fried chicken smell was too strong, greasy and cloying. Friends with sensitive noses could easily be overwhelmed.

"Why are you sitting here alone?"

Just as Wu Liang was about to take off the bag and return to the hospital.

He noticed a slender figure appear on the ground in front of him.

"You're a patient, aren't you? Why are you sitting out here at this hour? And why are you wearing such a strange thing?"

A pleasant, bell-like female voice sounded in front of Wu Liang again.

The first thing Wu Liang's eyes fell upon was a pair of delicate black leather boots.

As Wu Liang's gaze gradually moved upward, he saw a pair of long, slender, moist jade legs paired with a red-trimmed skirt.

They were so beautiful they were almost dazzling, making Wu Liang stare for a few extra moments.

The off-white clothing made her already fair skin appear even more pale and tender.

When Wu Liang's gaze landed on her pretty face, he was stunned.

Her clear, bright pupils seemed to reflect the stars, her willow brows were curved, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly.

"He... He Xue??"

Chapter 4: The Pure Maiden and Mr. KFC

"He... He Xue???"

Wu Liang said uncertainly, but the pure and moving girl before him looked exactly like He Xue from the game.

But why would He Xue be alone in a place like this at this time?

Wasn't she afraid of being followed by someone with ill intentions if she came out alone?

Or was the public security in this game world exceptionally good, so there was no need to worry about such things?

"You know me?"

He Xue blinked her eyes in surprise. Her watery eyes shifted, looking very beautiful.

This man wearing a KFC bag on his head, exuding an air of sadness, actually knew her?

What a strange person. But his earlier sadness, as if abandoned by the world, couldn't help but make her very curious.

"Mm... I'm also a student at Brilliant Academy..."

'Long live Grandpa KFC,'

Wu Liang muttered softly in his heart, reaching up to touch the KFC bag on his head. It was a good thing he was wearing this thing.

If He Xue knew that the man under the bag was that universally hated, teeth-grindingly infuriating, yet helpless villainous young master, she would probably ignore him completely.

"I guessed as much. But why are you sitting here alone at this hour? You must be a patient, and you're also..."

He Xue leaned down, looking at the hospital gown he was wearing, and pointed to her head with a hint of confusion, gesturing to the KFC bag on his head.

"I just came out for some fresh air. Rather, why are you wandering around in a place like this by yourself?"

Wu Liang pulled the KFC bag on his head down a bit, afraid that a gust of evening wind might blow it away.

It was easy to guess the consequences of appearing before He Xue in his true form.

"I just came out for some fresh air, Mr. KFC."

He Xue let out a soft laugh, her lips curling into a smile like a sliver of the moon.

Covering her skirt, she brought her slender white legs together and sat down beside Wu Liang.

"You must have snuck out of that hospital, right? My grandpa is also hospitalized there."

He Xue said indifferently, kicking her legs. Her voice flowed like gentle water, unhurried and calm.

The reason she came out was because the atmosphere in the hospital room was too oppressive, and she wanted to relieve some stress.

Her grandpa's illness had been dragging on for a long time. If it continued, his body wouldn't be able to hold on.

"Your grandpa?"

Wu Liang turned his head to look at He Xue's delicate profile. He saw a hint of loneliness in her eyes, which reflected the starry sky.

If he remembered correctly, He Xue's grandpa had died of some illness in the game.

He was a very gentle elder who doted on He Xue.

But it was precisely because of this that He Xue suffered such a severe blow later on.

"Yes, Grandpa has a very serious illness. Even here at Yanghai City's top hospital, they're helpless."

He Xue lowered her head with a touch of melancholy. She knew that her grandpa was already beyond saving.

The doctors here could only alleviate his pain, not cure him.

But she was already content. She didn't wish for anything else; as long as her grandpa was no longer suffering, that was enough.

"Is that so..."

Wu Liang stared at He Xue's profile. Her pale, bloodless face looked even more gaunt under the moonlight.

Affected by He Xue's helplessness and sadness, Wu Liang felt a tightness in his chest.

Wu Liang disliked this feeling of separation. In his previous world, he was the one who was abandoned.

Therefore, he didn't like seeing scenes of parting or death. Such lonely emotions could easily affect him.

"Ah, sorry, I didn't mean to."

Realizing something, He Xue quickly slapped her cheeks twice forcefully.

She looked at Mr. KFC beside her with an apologetic expression, clasping her hands together to apologize.

How could she let her emotions affect others? What was she doing?

"It's okay, you're very worried about your grandpa. Have you tried praying? Sometimes it can be quite effective."

Wu Liang calmly looked at He Xue, whose cheeks were flushed. This woman was really harsh on herself; those two slaps were quite loud.

But as expected of one of the game's heroines, she was still adorable even in her flustered state.

"Praying?"

He Xue was stunned. Could doing such a thing really help?

It was just self-consolation, a ritual for religious people to silently convey their wishes to God.

"You can try it. In some cases, prayer can work miracles."

Wu Liang clasped his hands together in front of him, demonstrating simply for He Xue.

Although it wasn't easy for him, an outsider, to interfere in this matter...

Ding ding dong~ Ding ding dong~ Jingle bells~ ×2

Two crisp ringing sounds echoed around He Xue and Wu Liang.

He Xue and Wu Liang looked at each other, both surprised. Their phones were ringing simultaneously.

"What a coincidence. I didn't expect our ringtones to have such poor taste."

He Xue stood up and lightly brushed off imaginary dust from her skirt.

Coming out for some fresh air today was indeed the right decision. Although they hadn't spoken much, she felt much more at ease.

He Xue looked at the KFC paper bag on his head and suddenly found the big white chicken on the bag to be very cute.

"Yeah... quite a coincidence..."

Wu Liang raised his hand slightly. Noticing the paper bag still on his head, he awkwardly scratched the back of his head.

He had actually set this ringtone a few minutes ago out of boredom. After all, it was a pretty brainless ringtone, wasn't it?

"Someone's here to pick me up, so I have to go back. You shouldn't stay here either; it gets very cold at night. Be careful not to catch a cold."

"Goodbye, Mr. KFC."

He Xue skipped to the roadside, waving goodbye to Wu Liang with a smile.

It was great to have met him. This was the first time she had confided in a complete stranger.

Praying, huh? She would definitely try it when she got back. She hoped it could really bring about a miracle.

"..."

Wu Liang sat on the bench, waving goodbye to He Xue as she gradually disappeared into the distance.

After watching He Xue vanish on the other side of the street, Wu Liang stretched his arms with a yawn and stood up from the bench.

"Ah… she didn't ask for my name, did she…"

Wu Liang muttered softly, pulling his phone out of his pocket to check the caller ID.

Yao Shi found out… I'm going to get lectured by Yao Shi again when I get back…

"Is the doctor's skill not good enough…"

Wu Liang stroked his chin, recalling He Xue's words. The medical facilities here were definitely top-notch, but the top doctors weren't in Yanghai City right now.

"Let me help out a bit, Mr. KFC."

Wu Liang put his hands in his pockets and smiled faintly.

A gust of evening breeze blew past, and Wu Liang shivered unexpectedly.

Hiss… It's a little cold even for a summer night…

Chapter 5: You Should Smile More

When Wu Liang returned to the 11th floor, the previously empty and dim corridor was now brightly lit.

Countless men in black stood on both sides of the corridor, like two rows of statues awaiting him.

"Young Master."
